LO: Sound Art

While looking through many different computational sound projects, the one that stood out to me the most was the Algorithmic Drive – Spectacular car(au)tonomy. The project uses a dash cam on a car to synchronize the information such as location, altitude, orientation, speed, engine RPM, stability, and the temperature of various sensors. I admire this project the most because they turn into everyday noises during a car ride to a beautiful artwork based on the sound. The system has a custom-built interface with illuminated rotary encoders and a monitor installed on a road case that contains a subwoofer. The artist’s artistic sensibilities manifest in the final form by being able to translate sound into digital components that people can view.
